Please review this new website

what do you guys think of this new website design? www.gurutoy.com
it's a visual search engine. click "explore gurutoy" to see some samples. all the content is uploaded by user submissions.

I really like the color contrast. The pop up is a bit slow when you click on the search result image. However, I guess it is an AJAX request so it includes network time too. Maybe add an indication (like the dot dot dot with lightbox?) that it is doing something with the click is good.

I really like the color contrast.

Wow, you weren't kidding! Love the filename by the way.. pretty-bg.png!

But at 320Kb I think it's a little bit too big for a web page. You might want to cut it down for size and just make it fade to white on really big monitors. Same effect, smaller image

The rest of the page is as expected, yet so dazzling! My search for 'dunno' came back as 'no dunno for you at this time'. Nice to see a search site with a little sense of humor. Keep up the good work.

I viewed it at work and apparently my browser (IE6) is whack....lol.

IE is whack in general!

for www.gurutoy.com
you need the latest browser. IE7, firefox, safari or chrome. there's a link on gurutoy, just type in "browser" in the search bar.
